This chapter provides information on data migration licenses, including:
Types of Data Migration Licenses

“Viewing Data Migration License Usage” on page 4-8
Types of Data Migration Licenses
The two types of data migration licenses include:
Capacity-based licenses
Array-based licenses
Capacity-based Licenses
Capacity-based licenses allow you to migrate data up to a specific limit designated
by the applied license key. This type of license is available in variants of 2TB, 5TB,
and 10TB capacities, which can be consumed by one or more migration jobs that
you specify. Every time you configure a data migration job, the available capacity
is reduced by an amount equivalent to the size of the source LUN being migrated.
The MPX200 does not allow you to add migration jobs when the job size exceeds
available migration licenses. In addition, custom size license keys are available. A
custom size license key allows you to purchase a single license key based on
your requirements.
Array-based Licenses
Array-based licenses allow you to migrate unlimited amounts of data to and from
the specific array that is licensed. These licenses are available in variants of
SINGLE-ARRAY and 3-ARRAY capacity. The licensed array may be used as
either a source or destination array while configuring jobs for data migration.
